About

Xtreme Lashes South Africa

Owner & Director Elizma Smith is the Exclusive Franchise Holder of Xtreme Lashes South Africa. She has also successfully completed the Xtreme Lashes Advanced Volumation training in Austin Texas. The company specializes in eyelash extension, training and selling Xtreme Lashes products.

Elizma Smith moved to Johannesburg from the small farming town of Pofadder in the Northern Cape. Destined for great things from the start, she graduated cum laude from Free State Technikon, with a Higher National Diploma in Business Administration.

Starting out as a receptionist at an estate agency in Bloemfontein, it wasn’t long before Elizma began to soar up the corporate ladder, managing several companies and having a significant impact on each along the way.

But Elizma’s heart was always in the beauty industry. Before establishing Elizma Image Consulting in 2008, she took part in the Mrs South Africa pageant, where she was a Top 10 Finalist and awarded the Mrs Congeniality, Mrs Body Perfect, and Mrs Fitness titles.

Elizma believes that it was her successful corporate career, combined with her passion for beauty, that ultimately led her to purchase the Xtreme Lashes franchise for South Africa. It is also the mix of drive and competitiveness with the caring heart of a farm girl, who will help anyone at any time.

Those who have worked with Elizma point to her strong leadership skills and passion for business, as well as the courage that enabled her to forge a path to success. In her personal capacity, Elizma is extremely proud to have grown from authentic South African roots in a small town to owner of the Xtreme Lashes franchise for South Africa. Meet The Team
